Yates, who won a stage of the Vuelta a Espana last year, will be supported by a strong cast of climbers. The one-day race in Navarre will also serve as a𓄧n important test ahead of next week's Vuelta al Pa&ia༺cute;s Vasco.
"We have good options 🐭up our sleeves for this race," sport director Dave McPartland said . "We have Roman Kreuziger there as a right hand man to Yates and it is another good opportunity for us.
A lot of the riders often race this race then recover on Sunday before the Pais Vasco. It is another good opportunity for us to attack a one-day race and 𝓀try and come away with another victory with the really good team that we have lining up."
Spaniard Carlos Verona and Australian climbing trio Damien Howson, Jack Haig, and Rob Power will also be important riders fo🍌r Yates' ambitions. Rounding out the team andꩵ adding muscle are Svein Tuft and Michael Hepburn.
The last five editions of the ra🍒ce have been shared between Movistar and Katusha, and once again, McPartland sees the two as the team to beat.
"We will be up against Movistar, it is their home race and they won it last year so I expect they will be motivated for it again but I think we can come away with a good result on this c🧔ourse," he added.
